Back again

Jul 05 2009 00:41

Here I am, back again. Posting publicly now and starting my healthy lifestyle, again, for the LAST time. I'm more determined than ever to reach my goal weight and to STOP letting my weight affect my life so negatively. For the longest time, I've been "unable" to do many of the things I love because I lack the confidence. Not anymore!

It's been 1.5 weeks and I've lost 2 lbs. I'm hoping to lost 2 lbs a week until we move back to the U.S. in August, then just 1.5 lbs a week after that. Once I reach my goal weight I'm going to continue to use CC and post in my WL Xanga to keep myself on track. I will not allow myself to be this way ever again! I'm ready to be carefree and confident again :-D

Stateside Gameplan!

I decided I need a gameplan for my trip to the states, especially my traveling days. The LAST thing I want to do is jack up my diet on this trip!

I'm still going to consume 1,200 a day, but I'm changing my workouts to 250. I have a hard time doing 500 calorie workouts as it is, and there I'll have even less time!

Travel Day 1

Workout in the morning, 250 cals
Pack snacks! Pretzels, Apples, 100 Calorie Packs, Carrots, Odwalla
Avoid bread, dessert, and cheese on the plane, drink water only
Have either subway or a salad at the airport, and MAYBE Starbucks (lite)
Still maintain close to 1,200 cals (it will be a looong day).
Walk around JFK, ALOT! I have a 6 hour layover and I really should take advantage of it!
Maybe take some Benefiber, or at least some fiber supplements
NO POP ALL DAY! Not even diet!

1st Day in the States, shopping list!

Benefiber
Cereal
Soy Milk
Apples
Frozen Broccoli
Bananas
100 cal packs
Lean Cuisines
Pretzels

Grad Party

Get there late, eat before I go
No alcohol
NOTHING!

THE WEDDING!

Definitely work out that morning, extra if I can!
Avoid sauces and carbs at dinner so I can have cake.
1 glass of wine or champagne, no exceptions

Overall trip tips

No Alcohol! Even with friends. What's the point!?
Be active during the day, go for walks etc.
Do NOT make eating out exceptions, i.e. Pizza, Chinese, etc.
Be sure to take Green Tea Supplement, I need all the hunger help I can get
DQ and Coldstone - Light or Yogurt only, NO toppings.
Get Subway, ALOT!!

Traveling Back to Germany

Pack TONS of healthy snacks, resist all urges to buy crap to eat at the airport
Avoid bread, dessert, and cheese on flight, drink water only
Salad or Subway at the airport ONLY.
